What a time we had in Crested Butte! As i sit here this morning... i find myself shaking my head... in awe... this was the GOOD STUFF... sorta like a cream filled donut... sure it was GREAT to be in a beautiful mountain home... oh how it was... but the STUFF in the middle... the FRIENDS... the LAUGHS... the TIME... made it taste SO great!

right before we got going too fast and went right of the edge... a BIG drop off

do we have to go?

The last morning of our trip had arrived... yuck... i wanted to throw myself around their ankles... and throw a good old fashion FIT... screaming at all... make them stay... stretch out the fun as long as i could!

Like Campbell said on the way to school this morning... "that was such a fun trip"... "sure wish we didn't have to go on a trip just to see them"... "i miss them"! I wish that too! Thanks Floyds for such a "GOOD STUFF" time!

Now... i've got tweaks all around to tend to... tweaks to the shop... the blog... the house... oh my! orders to send... bags to unpack... laundry to tackle... treats to create!

What a fun weekend it looks like! The snow is so awesome in the Rockies. Your photos are adorable - my favorite is the GIGGLY GIRLIES! Love it!!! Selfishly, I'm happy you are back... I look forward to reading your blog each day.

What a gorgeous pictoral. And ohhh..you make me feel a tiny bit bad for not liking the snow....I might, I say, I just might have fun in that. How much fun for all of you!!! Campbell looks so, so...sad. :(

Oodles of fun! Felt like I could touch the snow your picture's were so wonderful... I must say I missed my daily read of your blog!!! :o) just called my pizza order in... feet up and waiting!!Joy!! and let me say we could get into serious trouble thriftying together... !!! LuLu

Hey Carissa, Glad you're back. We've missed you here in blogworld. I have a big blog question for you. I've recently gotten a blog makeover and my graphic gal lyndsay 'stretched' my posting section similiar to yours. I now however have to resize every photo in photobucket.....do you do this too? Any tips 'cause I'm having a big of trouble. Does it just get easier with time? Anyhoo, glad you're back.

hey there lanny... you know i didn't make those smore kits... we got them at the outdoor bar there... nice & convenient! but how fun & super easy... would make a neat idea for a party. everything was there... a long dowel, marshmallows, hershey's bar, graham crackers! it was so perfect for the kids... oh and of course the part i ate! :)

katie...oh yes... skied since were kiddos... as i've gotten older i have become more of a chicken... i think cause we know what CAN happen... and now it is SO hard to see MY kiddos now going too darn fast!

veronica...girl i would not even know where to begin making a scarf... wish i DID... so bought that... i even think it was Old Navy!
